  • MetLife to Present 5th Annual Triangle Tech X Conference 

    “The Humanity Imperative: Achieving STEM Equity in the AI Age” 

    What: MetLife will host the 5th annual Triangle Tech X Conference to raise the bar on the industry’s commitment to STEM equity and explore emerging opportunities for accelerating innovations.

    Why: An inflection point has been reached between opportunity and adversity. As we enter the AI age, rapid technological advancements have enhanced the urgency for STEM industries to uproot a gender bias foundation and become more holistically inclusive. With women disproportionately impacted by global socioeconomic challenges, their perspectives and empathy can no longer be undervalued. It's critical to bring women into the fold and move forward from ideas to action. 

    Who: Featured speakers include:

    • Katya Echazarreta, the first Mexican-born woman in space
    • Orly Lobel, award-winning author & Professor of Law at the University of San Diego
    • Vilas Dhar, leading expert on equity and social change in a tech-enabled world

     

    Other key speakers include leaders from MetLife, such as: Bill Pappas, Executive Vice President and Head of Global Technology & Operations, and Robin Gordon, Chief Data and Analytics Officer.

    …and more! 

    When: Wednesday, October 11 and Thursday, October 12, 2023.
